Hi! I'm Julie, an amateur equestrian currently based in Largo, FL. I've been riding for nearly 25 years and am still learning daily. I was a working student for Don Stewart as a junior competitor, and have had the honor and privilege to work with industry professionals such as Melanie Smith Taylor, Mindy Bower, Ragan Roberts, Callan Solem, and Peter Wylde. I have also volunteered at top-level international events such as the World Equestrian Games in Normandy in 2014, working as a vet assistant and ringmaster's assistant.
I take an empty-cup approach to riding, in that every horse can and will teach me something new, and take utmost pride in my horsemanship, putting my horses' care and well-being at top priority. |

I am also a professional illustrator and graphic designer. If you are looking for my art portfolio, please click here.
